We’ve always said three’s a good number.
The anniversary of the day we chose each other is May 31st.
Harry, Louis, Poppy, Charlie, and Max.
I want it to be us in the end.

“More than sex?”
“Like, you know... like, feelings and things.”
Harry bites down on a grin. “Oh, like feelings.”
“Don’t.”
“You’re so adorable, Lou.”
“Stop.”
“Sorry,” Harry says, but his dimples beg to differ. “M’stopping.”

Happiness is such a strange thing.
There are days when it looks like kissing in a thunderstorm and letting the rain soak through your suit because the most beautiful boy in the world has just promised to love you for the rest of your life.
And there are days when it looks like this.

“I’d like a kiss,” he says on the way to the tube as they’re leaving Sarah’s. And Louis drags him close, lips soft and warm and exactly where Harry wants to end his night. “Thank you,” he grins.
“Now I’d like another.”
“Now I’d like another.”

“You won’t pin this on me,” Louis snorts. “If I’d had my way with you last night, you’d be too wrecked to even get words out this morning. I did you a kindness.”
“Fuck,” Harry swallows against the blush he can feel blooming up his neck. “Don’t be sexy right now. Everything hurts.”

„I mean,” Harry goes on, lowering their voice even further. “I know we’re not meant to feel competitive with other adopters, but it’s hard not to sometimes, isn’t it?”
“Oh, but Hazza, you’re forgetting,” Louis tells them, leaning right into their ear. “We’re the best people here.”

Monday night, Harry makes him promise to say if he needs a break.
“I’d not have given you a key if I didn’t like having you about.”
“Still,” Harry argues. “I don’t… I mean, I don’t want to squash you.”
“M’not squashed.” Louis squints at him, his brow knitting a moment. “Would you like a break?”

“No,” Louis cuts him off. “No, it’s not been like this for me before.” He worries his lip and looks away with a small nervous laugh. “God, Haz… I wish I had some way to make you know how special you are without just telling you so. To make you believe it. But, like… like, when you tell me you want

“I really love you a lot,” he blurts out. “Are you having a good birthday eve?”
“I am.” Louis smiles. “It’s the best.”
Harry actually skates forward—like, he pushes off the ice and actually skates for a second—just so he can move in a teeny bit closer to Louis. “I’m so happy I’m here.”
“I am.” Louis smiles. “It’s the best.”

He obliges. It’s so rare he gets him so openly needy like this, and it makes Harry’s heart stutter. “I really can’t stay, Lou.”

Louis closes his eyes. “I miss you.”

“I just… I wanted to, um—” And Harry doesn’t know why they feel like saying this now, except that everything they’re feeling seems to be right on the surface at the moment. “I’m… I’m nonbinary,” they stumble out awkwardly. “He/they. Sometimes. And I just… I guess I just… wanted you to know.”

“Well, still.” Louis sighs. “I want you to know… There’s not anyone else for me, Hazza. I can’t imagine there’ll ever be. You’re it, and… m’not getting bored at all. If anything, the more time I have with you, the more I want, which is just— You’re… You’re the love of my life.”

“Who, you and me?” Harry grins. “Yeah, Lou. Our little team can do anything.”

“It’s the hardest part sometimes. Letting go of all the possibilities you dream up while loving someone,” Zayn says. “But, you know, if you’re always trying to make an old future fit a new life, you’ll feel heartbroken forever.”
